Chapter 14 Progress Of Two Weeks

"Jarvis, my profile."

[Yes.]

Jarvis nodded and the blue screen appeared in front of me.

[Edward Amael Falkrona] [16]

[3rd Ascension]

[Charm: 18]

[Affection Points: 0]

[Falkrona Bloodline~1st Wing~]

Fuck!

"Jarvis! How the heck, my charm didn't reach twenty?!"

I asked furiously. The disappointment was heartwrenching.

Jarvis told me an average human's charm was around twenty, but I was still below the average after all the training.

[I can't answer that question.]

[]

Cleenah was puzzled at my reaction.

"Yeah, I'm happy about that but...it's just my charm, it's below average"

I slumped my shoulders.

Will I be the target of bullies in the academy like in the game?

Honestly, I didn't careNo, I cared, but I also wanted to live a normal life in a magic academy without problems. Well, I will interfere in the plot to get a happy ending for the first game, so for me, but still, I wanted to avoid being bullied in the academy.

I mean, they will bully me, and consequently, I will take revenge on them in the most ruthless way possible and my hands will get dirty. I was certainly not going to run away cowardly like Edward in the beginning of the game.

I shook my head.

Whatever.

The most important quality is not the look but the heart of someone.

Yeah, that's it.

It's definitely that.

I repeated to convince myself of that.

[]

Cleenah muttered and though I couldn't see her, I was sure she was scanning my body from head to toe.

[]

[Goddess Cleenah.]

[]

[Sometimes, it's better to be modest than arrogant.]

There was a strange silence, following Jarvis' words.

What was that? A famous quote or something like that?

'You are speaking of me, right? Since when am I arrogant? huh?'

[]

What the hell were they talking about?

And cringe?

I will never be cringe!

I think I am a bad influence on Jarvis and Cleenah. They are learning words from me and are using it against me.

[]

"Don't treat me like a psycho who chose to live in a cursed temple. I had goals and I achieved them."

I flicked my fingers and a spark of purple fire sputtered and coiled around my wrist like a bracelet. It didn't burn my skin, but it could burn down anything easily. Believe me, I tested it. The charred ground right next to the temple was my doing. There was a big tree there but I accidentally burned it down in a few seconds. Fortunately, no one was near to notice that.

I immediately canceled because I could feel my face going pale and my mana was depleting faster as well. That purple fire was really taking a toll on me. I was training with it recently and with moderation to not fall into a coma.

The purple fire, in the game, was called [Rings of Vysindra] or [Anathemas Fire].

It was one of Edward's elemental. No, it wasn't really an elemental. It was more complicated than just fire.

Vysindra was a renegade dragon who lived several centuries ago when dragons could fly freely in the sky.

Yes, dragons are present in the game. I mean the game's name is literally [Princess And Dragon], so it was obvious. Dragons' presence is just one of the countless reasons why this world is dangerous anyway.

As I said, Vysindra was a renegade dragon who, according to the game's side story, violated the Celestial laws and killed humans and dragons alike ruthlessly. He was immediately chased by both humans and his fellows from the same race but he held back for centuries thanks to his unique breath of purplish fire.

It wasn't called [Anathemas Fire] for nothing. Vysindra burned down countless towns and people alive with his fire.

After a hundred years, a Hero killed him, and peace came back, or so anyone would think, but nope. The Hero betrayed his comrades' dragons with whom he fought and started a slaughter. He asked for only leaving the eggs and children who couldn't do anything. Humans aren't to be underestimated. They knew exactly how to kill dragons and the Hero, though he was an ass*ole, was extremely strong. I could say without cringing that he was called the Dragon Slayer.

Ah, I'm cringing.

Some dragons ran away but most of them were either killed or captured. The man was hailed as a Hero and founded his own Empire, the Rhedorah Empire, on the remains and domain of the killed dragons

Anyway, for some reason, Edward inherited that psycho dragon's fire.

In the game, he only awakened Vysindra's fire thanks to the help of the Evil God he made a pact with, but surprisingly, I didn't need that evil god.

Was that because of Cleenah's presence?

No.

She can't even teach me one of her abilities, she's useless.

[]

"I don't think."

Shaking my head at Cleenah's useless excitation, I looked at the screen.

[Vysindra's Oath]

[???]

[???]

Like a week ago, two remaining slots were displayed like that.

Probably Edward's other abilities.

I couldn't even guess despite having played the game, since I wasn't interested in Edward in the game. Ephera was the only one who read information about him.

Is that karma?

Getting sent in the body of the guy I spat on every time I played the game

"See nothing new."

I sighed and went out of the lake.

Then I put on a black torn black shirt and black pants which were also shredded!

Where I found them, you'd ask?

The black pants were the same I had been wearing when I came here a month ago and the black shirt was from a dead body I found near the table. There were other corpses with clothes which were quite convenient for me. I just had to wash them hundreds of time before putting them on me.

[]

"..."

That girl.

"What's so funny, useless Goddess?"

[]

She continued to laugh. Though I asked, I knew the reason behind her laugh.

[]

""

Yeah, of course, wearing those torn clothes, I looked like a beggar!

"At least I don't look like a jobless useless Goddess."

[]

She stopped speaking suddenly as if her phone call was cut midway.

"That idiot."

A vein popped out on my forehead.

One of the reasons Cleenah couldn't give me her power, was because she was extremely weak after I unsealed her. So freaking weak that she couldn't speak for more than an hour with me.

All of that because that idiot blabbered pointlessly the entire morning.

"..."

'World toppling beauty', she was going to say

I palmed my face at my stupidity. I shouldn't have taught her that sentence but it was not my fault! I had to make her understand that regardless of how beautiful she was, she couldn't compare herself to Ephera!

Whatever.

"Finally, some peaceful time."

[Not for long since you have to go back to civilization.]

"Don't start as well, Jarvis! I haven't lived in the jungle for decades!"

I spat and started to select some black clothes to cover myself entirely.

Since I was going to the Falkrona Capital, I had to be incognito. People could still recognize me even though I lost weight.

After a full hour, I was finally ready to walk for two to three hours. I left all my remaining clothes and took nothing else. I could get clothes and money easily when I will be back at the mansion, playing the innocent nephew to aunt Belle.

[You don't deserve her.]

"Shaddap! I'm still grateful, okay!"

Belle was probably the first person that I, Nyr, liked in this world. As someone who lost his parents at seventeen years old, I forgot what family love was.

A little smile appeared on my face when I remembered how she scolded me.

The last time someone scolded me like that was Ephera and before her it was my parents.

I really miss them.

If there was a way to bring back Ephera, I will do it regardless of the consequences. My failures and carelessness cost her life. Emric was blaming himself for her death but for me it was my fault.

If I killed that guy back then, he wouldn't have done that. I might have done time but who cares? Someone like him deserved to die.

[...]

Maybe that guy from Tokyo had a goal for sending me there but I was not going to let him use me without winning anything in return. Only one clue about Ephera was enough.

I will do the rest.

"Let's go back."
